Gone are the days when little ones travelled sitting in mom or dad’s lap, or playing rambunctiously in the back seat of the car. The good news is, car safety seats for little ones have made travel safer. Car seats come with amenities like super-comfortable harnesses, plush inserts, stroller conversion options, and much more. Proper installation is a must for a car seat to function properly and protect your child.
